Couple of pics of Mort the 'conda

He's still a crusty face, but that's what you get for soaking in hard water.

I love my condas.. as long as you have some larger boid experience and don't mind getting bit sometimes (at first at least) they're awesome animals. Just do your research first!

Marshall I was just going to comment about that. I remember the first pic we saw. He had a good bit surrounding the top of his head. Looks like the water is being good to you April... He looks GRAND!!!!!!;)

So he's eating like a good boy? =)

Yes he is. He's one of those gentle slowly open his mouth and drag the rat to his hidey hole so you can't see me kind of eaters. All three of the condas are shy feeders..

As long as he's eating - yay! =)

April, are conda's egg layers? or do they give live birth?

Since they are a boa, they are livebearers. I got to see a 300lb green anaconda have her babies once.. that was so cool.

He looks unreal! Such beautiful colors, wow :)
